Voted for netcode but the thing I'd really like to fix is.....

...........the whiners who drop in on a PUG game, rush off alone and then complain bitterly about dying early and how it's all their "n00b" teammates fault.

To be honest if the performance of your teammates is THAT important too you, get yourself a premade and leave us PUG'ers to have fun (regardless of how good we are or aren't

I think that ELO system will eventually force players like this into the lower ranks and thereby force them to play themselves.

The one thing I would fix is replacing PGI.

Ability to chat after a match and send friend requests by clicking on a name in the score list would have been my first choice. We need to build more in-game community. I see names over and over but during the match there's not a lot of time to say hey, can I send you a friend request, or good match, etc.

The bugs suck, but most of the time they don't bother me. Rarely do I disconnect, lose my maps, get a flicker bug in the menu, get stuck in map geometry, get TKed, lag out, etc. AFK farmers bother me a bit more often. But the lack of chat after the match bothers me AFTER EVERY MATCH.

I voted for Netcode, because i can choose only one option. But I think that Netcode, ECM and collisions are linked to one another... If we get flawless netcode and collisions, ECM mechs lost their giant advantage on the battlefield. And because we have only ECM, game is unballanced

PS: I miss melee as well, but that kinda comes under the collisions

More game content, but better netcode is a close second.

lol, what you all actually fail to see is the STAGGERING amount of fixes that NEED to be done!!! hahahahaha. WTF?!?!?! (the list is very right, ever one of those choices... EVERYONE OF THEM)

They've all been around since CB launch, and are still here... these issues seem to be a testament to PGI's work ethic... all of them.

Knockdowns as this would solve the lightlag/ecm problems, all the terribad light mechs will be blown to pieces.

And?
It's just like everything else. You establish a list of tasks, prioritize them with the stakeholders, get your executers to do some critical analysis, make a decision, then allocate resources.
Solving problems isn't hard for people, if it was people wouldn't be able to solve them.

You left out Analog Turning for Joystick support so I picked less Lag. Sometimes Lag is not bad, but quite often I have to lag-shoot Atlas's by about 3 meters, which gets scored as a miss if I shoot accurately. No need to say this makes Lights unhittable since you can't predict where to lag-shoot them.

If I wasn't experiencing a bunch of connectivity issues with this game, I'd say this was already an extremely fun game, quibbling imbalance issues aside.

As it stands, I have a bunch of netcode issues that render an extremely fun game into an exercise in frustration and tedium.
